What the product description says
“Eye Care Radiance Exfoliator 45ml is a care formulated with Jojoba microbeads: this extremely gentle formulation allows to deeply cleanse the skin and gently eliminate dead skin cells.”
Source: Cocoon Center

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (carbomer, xanthan gum) and should be able to cleanse the skin gently. Still keep in mind that any cleansing can disrupt the skin barrier, and most people do not need to cleanse their skin more than once per day.

Xanthan gumEffect: HighUsed to create a thicker product consistency~1.8–2.7%
CarbomerEffect: HighHelps create a thicker or gel-like product texture. It is not a surfactant but can be used in gentle cleansing formulations~0.95–1.4%

What the product description says
“Radiance Exfoliator”
Source: Cocoon Center

This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.

AllantoinEffect: LowHelps calm down inflammation in skin and can help reduce itching. Helps to repair the skin barrier and keep skin hydrated~0.55–1.25%
